Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in New York

Great to meet you!

Hi I'm Rosemary! As a therapist, with over 10 years of experience working with adolescents, adults and those who suffer with severe mental health illness, I am well versed in several counseling techniques and have a compassionate approachable demeanor. My goal is to help you achieve your goals and learn new behaviors.

My journey of self-discovery has led me here and now. As most people do, we have hopes, dreams, and plans for our lives and aim for fulfillment. We do not always anticipate some of the obstacles that suddenly require a helping hand, a steppingstone, or a bridge. If you are currently experiencing any such challenge in your life, please reach out for help and support. I can provide counseling for individuals and the entire family. If you or your family is being impacted by addiction, relationship challenges, daily life stressors and disruptions and mental health concerns including depression and anxiety, your time might be now to receive some help.

I am skillful in helping families target the core issues that they are working through, whether driven by addiction or underlying mental health or dynamic factors. I employ strength based, cognitive behavioral techniques and a range of other modalities to achieve outlined goals. My role would be to listen, support, guide and to be transparent at all times.

Fear often holds us back from making a change or accepting help. Facing my fears has carved this amazing opportunity for me to help you. My years in the field has deepened my compassion for helping others of different cultural, ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds. I am inspired by those I helped on their journey and would love to do the same for you.

As the therapist, with the convenience of remote therapy, we can seamlessly integrate treatment into your daily life, allowing us to address the specific needs you want to work on.

My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and knowledgeable space where you feel genuinely seen and heard. I understand that navigating life’s challenges can often feel isolating, even when surrounded by others. That’s why I focus on creating an environment where you can openly explore your thoughts and feelings, ultimately helping to alleviate that sense of loneliness in crowded spaces.

Your comfort is a top priority in our sessions. You should feel empowered to speak freely, knowing that your voice matters. I am here to actively listen and to help you gain clarity on what you’re seeking from therapy. Whether it’s your first time receiving treatment or you’re returning to therapy, our work together will be collaborative, and we will move at a pace that feels right for you.

Exploring what you want to change and why it’s important is a crucial part of the therapeutic process. I invite you to reflect on your goals and consider what areas of your life you’d like to shift or improve. Once you’ve identified those areas, we can develop effective tools and strategies tailored to your specific needs.

My approach is rooted in compassion, practical guidance, and evidence-based techniques that foster growth and resilience. Let’s work together to identify what support looks like for you, clarify what you want to change, and equip you with the tools to make that change sustainable. Your journey is unique, and I’m here to provide guidance every step of the way.

Education and History

I have four years of clinical counseling experience, providing therapy in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, NY. I earned both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Mercy University in Dobbs Ferry, New York.

I believe therapy is the most successful when a relationship is formed between me and the client. Therefore, in addition to helping you cope with your mental health, I also try to focus on the relationship and what comes up in session live time.

I’m a licensed therapist with a Master’s degree in Social Work from Fordham University, and I specialize in working with adults navigating addiction, trauma, anxiety, and mood disorders. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices that support healing and personal growth.

With a background in both outpatient and community-based settings, I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals through some of life’s most difficult moments. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to take meaningful steps toward change. Whether you're managing overwhelming emotions, healing from past trauma, or working toward sobriety, I’ll meet you where you are and help you move forward at your own pace.

I welcome clients from all walks of life and believe therapy should feel like a supportive partnership. If you're ready to begin or continue your healing journey, I look forward to working with you.

I am a womanist art therapist who supports clients in exploring their stories through creative expression. My approach encourages growth, self-awareness, and healing in relation to culture, identity, and the systems that shape our lives. I work from a strength based, culturally responisve lens, holding space for individuals adn communities to be seen, heard, and affirmed. Through the creative process, I help clients navigate life transitions, trauma, anxiety, and identity development while fostering resilience and collective care.

I’m Dr. Gina Sissoko, a licensed clinical psychologist passionate about helping women—especially Black women, immigrant women, and high-achieving professionals—heal from trauma, manage stress, and create lives that feel balanced and authentic.

My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in both science and cultural awareness. I specialize in supporting women navigating burnout, relationship challenges, and the effects of racism or gender bias at work. In our sessions, I create a space where you can slow down, feel seen, and rebuild confidence from the inside out.

I am a doctorally prepared, dual board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC) and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to providing compassionate, patient-centered, and evidence-based care. I strive to create a supportive and collaborative environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered in their mental health journey.

By integrating my medical and psychiatric expertise, I take a holistic approach to care, addressing both physical and emotional well-being to help improve overall health outcomes. My goal is to partner with you to develop a personalized plan that supports your growth, stability, and long-term wellness
